UMTS Performance Measurement

Beschreibung

UMTS Performance Measurement is a practical guide thatexplains how to identify and measure the main problems seen intoday's UMTS live networks and will make performance measurementresults gathered in the UTRAN environment understandable for thereader. It provides a fundamental background for daily workin the field or lab, covering a wide range of performancemeasurements that help to troubleshoot and optimize the UTRANenvironment. The content goes far beyond what has been defined byinternational standard bodies like 3GPP and closes the gap betweeninternational standards and definitions of network equipmentmanufacturers (NEM) and network operators. The emphasis is ondefinition of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and measurementsthat are not described in 3GPP standard documents, such asthroughput measurements and the success/failure analysis of allpossible handover types. * Includes clear coverage of the fundamentals of performancemeasurement software architecture and ways to collect and presentstatistical data * Contains numerous call flow diagrams, conversion tables,protocol message examples and sample measurement results that canbe used as reference for daily work in the field or lab * Explains measurement limitations and how tolerances providevaluable information for validation and evaluation of measurementresults * Provides an overview of how performance measurement softwareworks as well as information on how data streams are captured andanalyzed, and how analysis results are aggregated and presented ingraphic user interfaces and reports Providing a gateway into the world of UMTS-specific measurementscenarios and a general overview of what can be defined andmeasured at an in-depth technical level, this book will appeal tothose involved in network operation, planning, configuration anddeployment, as well as consulting and training companies, students,technical journalists and measurement equipment manufacturers.
